TECHNICAL FIELD

Generally, the present disclosure relates to the field of wireless charging. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a receiver device for facilitating wireless energy reception.

BACKGROUND

Radio-frequency (RF)-based wireless technology enables three different basic system functions, namely, wireless communication (data/voice), wireless sensing (parameter), and wireless powering transmission (energy). The first two well-known wireless applications are found today in numerous social and economic activities, which have been transforming our daily life. However, the terahertz wireless power transmission (WPT), which is unknown at least publicly, has not yet been developed and established as one of the fundamental driving forces for wireless powering (charging) of mobile devices.

Further, portable electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, notebooks, and other electronic devices have become an everyday need in the way we communicate and interact with others. The frequent use of these devices needs a significant amount of power, which may easily deplete the batteries attached to these devices. Therefore, a user is frequently needed to plug in the device to a power source and recharge such devices. This may require having to charge electronic equipment at least once a day, or in high-demand electronic devices more than once a day.

Such an activity may be tedious and may represent a burden to users. For example, a user may be required to carry chargers in case his electronic equipment is lacking power. In addition, users have to find available power sources to connect to. Lastly, users must plugin to a wall or other power supplies to be able to charge electronic devices. However, such activity may render electronic devices inoperable during charging.

Current solutions may include IoT low power sensors, and smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices using rechargeable batteries. However, the aforementioned approach requires a user to carry around extra batteries, and also make sure that the extra set of batteries is charged. Solar-powered battery chargers are also known, however, solar cells are expensive, and a large array of solar cells may be required to charge a battery of any significant capacity. Other approaches involve a mat or pad that allows charging of a device without physically connecting a plug of the device to an electrical outlet, by using electromagnetic signals. For example, harvesting (RF) energy typically utilizes directional antennas to target and deliver energy to a device and utilizes a directional pocket of energy and waveform operating in the 2.4/5.8 GHz radiofrequency range. In this case, the device still requires to be placed in a certain location, and orientation for a period of time in order to be charged. Assuming a single source power transmission of electromagnetic (EM) signal, a factor proportional to 1/r² reduces an EM signal power over a distance r; in other words, it is attenuated proportionally to the square of the distance. Thus, the received power at a large distance from the EM transmitter is a small fraction of the power transmitted. To increase the power of the received signal, the transmission power would have to be boosted. Assuming that the transmitted signal has an efficient reception at three centimeters from the EM transmitter, receiving the same signal power over a useful distance of three meters would entail boosting the transmitted power by 10,000 times. Such power transmission is wasteful, as most of the energy would be transmitted and not received by the intended devices, it could be hazardous to living tissue, it would most likely interfere with most electronic devices in the immediate vicinity, and it may be dissipated as heat. In yet another approach such as directional power transmission, it would generally require knowing the location of the device to be able to point the signal in the right direction to enhance the power transmission efficiency. However, even when the device is located, efficient transmission is not guaranteed due to reflections and interference of objects in the path or vicinity of the receiving devices. In addition, in many use cases, the device is not stationary, which is an added difficulty.

In addition, in currently available wireless charging solutions, there is inadequate security associated with power transfer. In particular, there are no mechanisms in place to ensure that power transfer is provided only to authorized devices.

Further, existing wireless chargers are designed to charge specific electronic devices that are generally co-designed with corresponding wireless chargers. In other words, both the wireless transmitter and a wireless receiver are designed as a pair to be matched in terms of parameters of power transfer. Accordingly, the wireless transmitter of existing wireless chargers is not capable of supplying power to multiple electronic devices with varying parameters. Furthermore, the wireless receiver is required to be placed at a specified distance in order to provide efficient and/or timely charging. In other words, any deviation in the distance between the wireless transmitter and the wireless receiver may result in inefficiencies and/or insufficient transfer of power.

Additionally, in existing wireless charging networks and systems, there is no monitoring of the wireless power transfer process. In other words, a user is largely unaware of the operational status of the power transfer process. The only way that a user may realize that power transfer is taking place is by noticing a change in the level of a battery of a receiver device. Furthermore, this requires a user's presence near the wireless charger and/or receiver in order to monitor and ensure the proper transfer of power.

Finally, in existing wireless charging solutions, there is inadequate security and authentication associated with power transfer. In particular, there are no mechanisms in place to ensure that power transfer is provided only to authorized and authenticated devices.

Further, there is an increasing interest in blockchain technology and the Internet-of-Things (IoT) where small computing sensors and mobile devices are embedded in everyday objects and environments. However, providing power to such small computing sensors and mobile devices is a challenge, as these sensors and computing devices become smaller and more numerous. Directly plugging these devices to provide power is inconvenient and is difficult at large scale.

Low-Power and Lossy Networks (LLNs), e.g., sensor networks, have a myriad of applications, such as Smart Grid and Smart Cities. Various challenges are presented with LLNs, such as lossy links, low bandwidth, battery operation, low memory and/or processing capability of a device, etc. Changing environmental conditions may also affect device communications. For example, physical obstructions (e.g., changes in the foliage density of nearby trees, the opening and closing of doors, etc.), changes in interference (e.g., from other wireless networks or devices), propagation characteristics of the media (e.g., temperature or humidity changes, etc.), and the like, also present unique challenges to LLNs. For example, an LLN may be an Internet of Things (IoT) network in which “things,” e.g., uniquely identifiable objects such as sensors and actuators, are interconnected over a computer network.

In IoT and similar networks, mobile nodes may register with different local networks as they move. For example, a person may carry a number of wearable sensors (e.g., heart rate monitor, blood glucose meter, etc.) that connect to different networks as the user travels (e.g., through a community, between different floors of a building, etc.). Each of these sensors and the various networks may have their own registration and authentication mechanisms that can consume multiple resource cycles, depending on how fast the objects are moving.

Existing receiver devices for wireless energy reception are deficient with regard to several aspects. For instance, current receiver devices do not receive energy wirelessly using electromagnetic waves of terahertz frequencies. Furthermore, current receiver devices do not include superconducting materials.

Therefore, there is a need for an improved receiver device for facilitating wireless energy reception that may overcome one or more of the above-mentioned problems and/or limitations.

In general, the method disclosed herein may be performed by one or more computing devices. For example, in some embodiments, the method may be performed by a server computer in communication with one or more client devices over a communication network such as, for example, the Internet. In some other embodiments, the method may be performed by one or more of at least one server computer, at least one client device, at least one network device, at least one sensor, and at least one actuator.

Accordingly, in some embodiments, the storage device may be based on technologies such as, but not limited to, data compression, data backup, data redundancy, deduplication, error correction, data finger-printing, role-based access control, and so on.

Further, one or more steps of the method disclosed herein may be initiated, maintained, controlled and/or terminated based on a control input received from one or more devices operated by one or more users such as, for example, but not limited to, an end-user, an admin, a service provider, a service consumer, an agent, a broker and a representative thereof. Further, the user as defined herein may refer to a human, an animal or an artificially intelligent being in any state of existence, unless stated otherwise, elsewhere in the present disclosure. Further, in some embodiments, the one or more users may be required to successfully perform authentication in order for the control input to be effective. In general, a user of the one or more users may perform authentication based on the possession of a secret human-readable secret data (e.g. username, password, passphrase, PIN, secret question, secret answer, etc.) and/or possession of a machine-readable secret data (e.g. encryption key, decryption key, bar codes, etc.) and/or or possession of one or more embodied characteristics unique to the user (e.g. biometric variables such as, but not limited to, fingerprint, palm-print, voice characteristics, behavioral characteristics, facial features, iris pattern, heart rate variability, evoked potentials, brain waves, and so on) and/or possession of a unique device (e.g. a device with a unique physical and/or chemical and/or biological characteristic, a hardware device with a unique serial number, a network device with a unique IP/MAC address, a telephone with a unique phone number, a smartcard with an authentication token stored thereupon, etc.). Accordingly, the one or more steps of the method may include communicating (e.g. transmitting and/or receiving) with one or more sensor devices and/or one or more actuators in order to perform authentication. For example, the one or more steps may include receiving, using the communication device, the secret human-readable data from an input device such as, for example, a keyboard, a keypad, a touch-screen, a microphone, a camera and so on. Likewise, the one or more steps may include receiving, using the communication device, the one or more embodied characteristics from one or more biometric sensors.

Further, one or more steps of the method may be automatically initiated, maintained and/or terminated based on one or more predefined conditions. In an instance, the one or more predefined conditions may be based on one or more contextual variables. In general, the one or more contextual variables may represent a condition relevant to the performance of the one or more steps of the method. The one or more contextual variables may include, for example, but are not limited to, location, time, identity of a user associated with a device (e.g. the server computer, a client device, etc.) corresponding to the performance of the one or more steps, environmental variables (e.g. temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, lighting, sound, etc.) associated with a device corresponding to the performance of the one or more steps, physical state and/or physiological state and/or psychological state of the user, physical state (e.g. motion, direction of motion, orientation, speed, velocity, acceleration, trajectory, etc.) of the device corresponding to the performance of the one or more steps and/or semantic content of data associated with the one or more users. Accordingly, the one or more steps may include communicating with one or more sensors and/or one or more actuators associated with the one or more contextual variables.

Further, the one or more steps of the method may be performed one or more number of times. Additionally, the one or more steps may be performed in any order other than as exemplarily disclosed herein, unless explicitly stated otherwise, elsewhere in the present disclosure. Further, two or more steps of the one or more steps may, in some embodiments, be simultaneously performed, at least in part. Further, in some embodiments, there may be one or more time gaps between performance of any two steps of the one or more steps.

Further, in some embodiments, the one or more predefined conditions may be specified by the one or more users. Accordingly, the one or more steps may include receiving, using the communication device, the one or more predefined conditions from one or more and devices operated by the one or more users. Further, the one or more predefined conditions may be stored in the storage device. Alternatively, and/or additionally, in some embodiments, the one or more predefined conditions may be automatically determined, using the processing device, based on historical data corresponding to performance of the one or more steps. For example, the historical data may be collected, using the storage device, from a plurality of instances of performance of the method. Such historical data may include performance actions (e.g. initiating, maintaining, interrupting, terminating, etc.) of the one or more steps and/or the one or more contextual variables associated therewith. Further, machine learning may be performed on the historical data in order to determine the one or more predefined conditions. For instance, machine learning on the historical data may determine a correlation between one or more contextual variables and performance of the one or more steps of the method. Accordingly, the one or more predefined conditions may be generated, using the processing device, based on the correlation.

Further, one or more steps of the method may be performed at one or more spatial locations. For instance, the method may be performed by a plurality of devices interconnected through a communication network. Accordingly, in an example, one or more steps of the method may be performed by a server computer. Similarly, one or more steps of the method may be performed by a client computer. Likewise, one or more steps of the method may be performed by an intermediate entity such as, for example, a proxy server. For instance, one or more steps of the method may be performed in a distributed fashion across the plurality of devices in order to meet one or more objectives. For example, one objective may be to provide load balancing between two or more devices. Another objective may be to restrict a location of one or more of an input data, an output data and any intermediate data therebetween corresponding to one or more steps of the method. For example, in a client-server environment, sensitive data corresponding to a user may not be allowed to be transmitted to the server computer. Accordingly, one or more steps of the method operating on the sensitive data and/or a derivative thereof may be performed at the client device.

Overview:

The present disclosure describes a receiver device for facilitating wireless energy reception. In particular, the present disclosure provides terahertz wireless power transmission for (charging) receiver devices utilizing a terahertz power transmission wave.

Further, the present disclosure describes methods and systems to facilitate blockchain-based wireless power transfer that delivers power to devices such as, superconducting receiver devices that's able to amplify terahertz frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum and stores electricity on a supercapacitor. The optical transistor in the receiver allows the receiver to harvest energy from the elusive terahertz gap bandwidth and create the next generation superconductivity whereby a charge moves through a material with minimum resistance.

Further, the terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device may be configured to mutually detect whether a function of transmitting and receiving power through a terahertz wireless signal is available in each other. If both the terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device-detect mutually availability of the function of transmitting and receiving power through a terahertz wireless signal, connection and a unique match (i.e. pairing) may be performed between the terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device. When a connection and paring are successful, the terahertz transmitter device may send power to the terahertz receiver device through a terahertz wireless signal. Further, in some embodiments, the initiation of power transfer may be based on a voice user interface instruction (e.g. a voice command provided a user).

In another embodiment, a terahertz wireless power-based method for power transmission may include placing a portable terahertz transmitter device within a terahertz wireless signal search range of a terahertz receiver device and performing connection and unique match between the terahertz transmitter and terahertz receiver device.

In a further embodiment, a terahertz wireless power-based system for power transmission may include a terahertz transmitter device connected and paired to many other terahertz receiver devices, and sending power to the many other terahertz receiver devices via a terahertz wireless signal according to a user instruction. The system located on the wireless power network (WPN) may further include many other terahertz receiver devices for receiving the power sent by the terahertz transmitter device via the terahertz wireless power signal.

Terahertz wireless power-based methods and systems for power transmission are provided. To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages clear, the methods and systems are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes and are not intended to limit the claimed invention in any way.

Terahertz wireless power-based methods and systems for power transmission may include a terahertz transmitter device and a terahertz receiver device placed within an effective distance of each other and, by means of connection and unique match, the terahertz transmitter device receives communications data from the terahertz receiver device and after receiving the communication data, the terahertz transmitter device can transmit power to the terahertz receiver device via a terahertz wireless power signal.

According to some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a terahertz wireless power-based method for power transmission.

According to some embodiments, a method and system to facilitate blockchain-based wireless power transfer that delivers power to devices such as, for example, IoT low-power sensors and mobile devices are disclosed.

According to some embodiments, a device in a network receives a network registration and power transmission request from a particular node. The network registration request comprises information about the particular node. The device causes performance of authentication, identity, and validation of the information about the particular node via comparison of the information about the particular node to a distributed blockchain that includes information regarding the particular node and one or more other nodes. The device causes an update to the blockchain-based information about the particular node and the validation of the information about the particular node. The device uses the updated blockchain to control the behavior of the particular node and any other related node.

According to some embodiments, blockchain-based methods and systems for wireless power transmissions are provided.

Further, a computer network is a geographically distributed collection of nodes interconnected by communication links and segments for transporting data between end nodes, such as mobile devices, personal computers, and workstations, or other devices, such as sensors, etc. Many types of networks are available, ranging from Unstructured or Omni-directional wireless mesh networks, Structured wireless mesh networks, peer to peer (P2P), local area networks (LANs) to wide area networks (WANs). In an unstructured wireless mesh network, each mesh node typically uses an Omni-directional antenna and is able to communicate with all the other mesh nodes that are within the transmission range. Structured wireless mesh networks are planned networks typically implemented using multiple radios at each node location and multiple directional antennas. Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or workloads between peers. Peers are equally privileged, equipotent participants in the application. They are said to form a peer-to-peer network of nodes. LANs typically connect the nodes over dedicated private communications links located in the same general physical location, such as a building or campus. WANs, on the other hand, typically connect geographically dispersed nodes over long-distance communications links, such as common carrier telephone lines, optical light paths, synchronous optical networks (SONET), synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH) links, and others. In addition, a Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is a kind of wireless ad-hoc network, which is generally considered a self-configuring network of mobile routers (and associated hosts) connected by wireless links, the union of which forms an arbitrary topology. A Terahertz power transmitter/router apparatus may include Terahertz Low Earth Orbiting Satellite power transmitter/router, Terahertz Cell Tower power transmitter/router and Terahertz Wi-Fi power transmitter/router and the use of microwaves at the 2,450 MHz spectrum.

Further, the radio-frequency (RF)-based wireless technology consists of three different basic system functions, namely, wireless communication (data/voice), wireless sensing (parameter), and wireless powering transmission (energy). The first two well-known wireless applications have been found today in nearly all social and economic activities, which have been transforming our daily life. However, the terahertz wireless power transmission (WPT), which is unknown at least publicly, has not yet been developed and established as one of the fundamental driving forces for wireless powering (charging) of IoT and mobile devices.

Terahertz wave—also known as sub-millimeter radiation, terahertz radiation, tremendously high frequency, T-rays, T-waves, T-light, T-lux or THz—consists of electromagnetic waves within the ITU-designated band of frequencies from 0.3 to 3 terahertz (THz; 1 THz=10¹² Hz). It fully covers the global-satellite-positioning band (1.58 GHz and 1.22 GHz), the cellular-communications fourth-generation, (4G) fifth-generation (5G), (1.7 GHz and 1.9 GHz sixth-generation) (6G), seventh-generation long-term-evolution band (95 gigahertz (GHz) to 3 terahertz (THz) range and 21.2 GHz of spectrum for testing of unlicensed devices and also the use of microwaves at the 2,450 MHz spectrum.

Further, blockchain-based identity and transaction platforms—Information (e.g., a photo) for a person can be encrypted and stored in a blockchain as part of enrolling the person as a user in a blockchain-based identity and transaction platform. Trust relationships can be formed between the user and other users, and records of the trust relationships can be stored in the blockchain. Transactions between the user and other users with whom the user has formed a trust relationship can be authorized. Records of the transactions can also be stored in the blockchain. Authorization can involve, for example, a multi-stage verification process that accesses information stored on the blockchain. The transactions and identity information, along with other information, can contribute to an economic identity of the person. Storing an economic identity (and the underlying information that forms the economic identity of the person) in the blockchain results in a secure platform accessible to people regardless of their economic or geographic circumstances.

The trend of decentralization represents a massive wave of innovation that is reshaping society. Decentralized application platforms (Smart Contracts) are “self-executing” and “self-enforceable” transactions and do not require information to pass through a single point. Instead, many points connect, known as a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. Smart contracts remove the need for a “trusted third party” by providing a transparent, auditable, enforceable, and affordable means to conduct a variety of transactions over the blockchain. Currently, new kinds of Blockchain transactions and decentralized applications are emerging, along with new social norms and expectations. Crypto-currencies and smart contracts together act as the backbone to this new world. On the one hand, we are seeing the evolution of money, where the process of creating, transacting, and storing value has fundamentally changed with the invention of cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, we have Smart Contracts that introduce an added layer of facilitation, where agreements can be structured on the Blockchain to be both self-executing, and self-enforcing, providing a wide range of benefits and applications. Further, utility tokens, also called user tokens or application coins, represent future access to a company's product or service.

The terahertz receiver device may be used for receiving power sent by the terahertz transmitter device. The terahertz receiver device may be within a terahertz wireless signal search range of the terahertz transmitter device.

Further, the terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device may be devices that support terahertz wireless power transmission. The terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device may be provided with three enabled functions: a first function, a second function, and a third function. As shown in FIG. 11, in order to distinguish conveniently, a first function, a second function, and a third function of the terahertz transmitter device may be respectively marked as 1106-1110 in the wireless power transfer protocol stack 1102. Similarly, a first function, a second function, and a third function of the terahertz receiver device may be marked as 1112-1116 in the wireless power transfer protocol stack 1104.

The first function 1106 and/or the first function 1112 may be a hardware layer, which may include a terahertz transceiver connected to WPN storage medium, wherein the terahertz transceiver may be used for receiving and sending data using a terahertz wireless signal, and the WPN storage medium may be used for storing the terahertz receiver data. A storage medium may be a non-volatile data medium.

The second function 1108 and/or the second function 1114 may be a software layer, which may be used for implementing a function of a first function, such as a hardware layer. The second function 1108 and/or the second function 1114 may include a terahertz communication interface drive, a terahertz protocol stack, a data packing, and security engine, a file system, and/or a storage drive.

Further, a terahertz communication interface drive may be used for controlling a terahertz transceiver to receive and send power and data. A terahertz transceiver may be used for receiving and sending power and data. A terahertz protocol stack may be used for performing protocol layer data processing on data. For example, a terahertz protocol stack may be used for performing such protocol layer data registration processing as a unique match, retransmission, unpacking or recombination and the like. A data packing and security engine may be used for packing, unpacking, encrypting and decrypting data, which may include packing, unpacking, encrypting and decrypting original data from the view of transmission efficiency and security.

Further, a store function may follow an existing storage mode. For example, a cloud-based storage may call a file access interface of a storage medium for a file system. A file system may provide a standard file access interface, such as a bulk transmission service manager or an application interactive interface, to a top-level function layer in an operating system.

When the terahertz transmitter device externally transmits a data file, a storage drive may call a file access interface of a storage medium for a file system so as to read data stored in a storage medium. Data, after reading, may be transmitted to a data packing and security engine through a standard file access interface of a file system. Transmitted data may be packed and encrypted by a data packing and security engine and may flow in a terahertz communication protocol stack. After a terahertz communication protocol stack performs protocol layer data processing on data, a terahertz communication interface drive may control a terahertz transceiver to send the power transmission. When a terahertz storage device receives data, a terahertz communication interface drive may control a terahertz transceiver to receive the data, and may process the data using a terahertz communication protocol stack. Afterwards, data may be decrypted and unpacked by a data packing and security engine module to acquire original data. Data may be written in a storage medium through a file system and storage drive, thus, implementing storage of the data.

The third function 1110 and/or the third function 1116 may be an application interactive interface for user operation. A user may perform such operations as enabling, pausing or interrupting a data transmission process on an application interactive interface. During a power transmission process, the terahertz transmitter device may prompt a user of a state and a parameter of a data transmission process. For example, a user may be presented some related indexes, such as power transmission progress, power transmission rate, error instruction, remaining time or file path, etc.

Further, the second function 1108 and/or the second function 1114 may include a specialized service layer, which may manage a wireless power transmission function to a terahertz receiver device. A service layer may be referred to bulk power transmission managed on the wireless power network (WPN). A WPN manages the bulk power transmission may be responsible for performing priority scheduling on power to be transmitted, and particularly, may manage structured bulk power transmission. For example, WPN power bulk transmission may preferentially transmit important or urgent power according to situations when a terahertz transmitter device transmits a lot of bulk power to a terahertz receiver device. When a terahertz transmitter device externally transmits power, WPN may manage the bulk power transmission may call a file access interface of a file system to read the data. Data to be read may be packed and encrypted by a data packing and security engine and may flow in a terahertz communication protocol stack. A terahertz communication protocol stack may perform protocol layer data processing on the data, and a terahertz communication interface drive may control a terahertz transceiver to send the data. The WPN connected to terahertz transmitter device may receive a data file according to a reverse of the foregoing process, wherein a terahertz communication interface drive may receive data, and may process the data using a terahertz communication protocol stack. Afterwards, data may be decrypted and unpacked by a data packing and security engine module to acquire original data, and the data may be written in a storage medium through a file system and a storage drive, thus, implementing storage of the data.

Compared with traditional relational databases, a bulk power transmission (WPN) may manage a structured bulk power transmission process and meet demands of structured bulk power processing and mining. Power Transmission may be based on structured bulk data, which may be information stored in a file system rather than a database. In mobile Internet development, a growing rate of unstructured data is far greater than that of structured data (e.g., data based on a relational database). A method for power transmission of the present disclosure may be based on unstructured bulk data, which caters to the mobile Internet development trend, and can better meet demands of unstructured bulk data processing and mining.

Further, terahertz wireless power-based methods and systems for power transmission may include a terahertz transmitter device and a terahertz receiver device placed within an effective distance to each other, and, by means of connection and neural match unique match between the terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device, power in the terahertz transmitter device may be transmitted to the terahertz receiver device via a terahertz wireless signal. Rapid transmission of data and power between terahertz devices is implemented, matched with a novel data interactive model in a terahertz WPN, and may perform data interaction quickly, stably and securely. In addition, optimization on a physical structure of a product may be implemented using WPN, thus, allowing completion of transmission and exchange of data in a scenario in which a transmission medium cannot be released.

FIG. 12 illustrates a flowchart of a method 1200 of performing wireless power transfer using terahertz frequencies based on a search for transmitter devices and pairing between a transmitter device (such as the transmitter device 802, as shown in FIG. 8) and a receiver device (such as the receiver device 804, as shown in FIG. 8), in accordance with some embodiments.

At 1202, the method 1200 may include searching for one or more Wireless Power Network IDs (WPN-ID). Further, at 1204, the method 1200 may include transmitting one or more power transfer requests to one or more transmitter devices associated with the one or more WPN-IDs. Further, the one or more transmitter devices may include one or more satellites. Further, the one or more satellites may include one or more low earth orbiting satellites. Further, at 1206, the method 1200 may include obtaining one or more responses from the one or more transmitter devices. Then, at 1208, the method 1200 may include transmitting an acknowledgment to a selected transmitter device based on the one or more responses. Next, at 1210, the method 1200 may include receiving wireless power transfer from the selected transmitter device using terahertz frequencies.

Also provided herein, is a connection and unique match process for use in a terahertz wireless power-based method for power transmission is depicted. The process may include detecting, by a terahertz transmitter device, whether a terahertz receiver device includes a function for transmitting power through a terahertz wireless signal. This method uniquely matches two or more system elements using a terahertz signal or a waveform.

When a terahertz transmitter and terahertz receiver device are placed within an effective distance, the terahertz transmitter device may detect whether the terahertz receiver device is effective. The former may detect whether the latter may receive power through a terahertz wireless signal. The process may be mutual. A terahertz receiver device may detect whether a terahertz transmitter device is effective.

When a terahertz transmitter device and terahertz receiver device are matched, the first and the terahertz receiver devices may respectively receive an operation instruction from a user to perform connection and unique match. When a terahertz transmitter device and terahertz receiver device are not matched, a user may be presented with an error. Subsequent to an initial failure to be matched, a user may select to retry.

When a terahertz receiver device is an effective one, the connection and unique match may be performed between a terahertz transmitter device and the terahertz receiver device. The unique match may be performed through exchanging unique match registration codes between terahertz transmitter and terahertz receiver devices. Unique match registration codes exchange may refer to two devices mutually validating unique match registration codes. When unique match registration codes of terahertz transmitter device and terahertz receiver device are identical to each other, the two may be mutually validated. Security validation for power transmission may be acquired such that power transmission may be performed securely. A connection and unique match process may ensure security and reliability of a power transmission. When it is detected that a terahertz receiver device does not have a function for transmitting data and receiving power through a terahertz wireless signal, invalidity of the terahertz receiver device may be presented to a user, and the user may select whether to retry.

Further disclosed herein, is a power transmission process for use in a terahertz wireless power-based method for power transmission. When connection and paring are successful, a terahertz transmitter device may select data according to a user instruction. A user may select data to be transmitted in advance, and a terahertz transmitter device may select data according to the selection of the user.

Further, the power transmission process may include enabling a terahertz transmitter device according to user instruction. Subsequent to a user selecting power to be transmitted, a terahertz transmitter device may prompt the user whether to enable a power transmission process, and may perform a power transmission process if the user selects yes. Alternatively, a user, after finding that selected power is wrong, may select to not enable a power transmission process, and may correct data for transmission.

Further, the power transmission process may include determining, by a terahertz transmitter device, whether a state of a power transmission process is normal. For example, a terahertz transmitter device may determine whether a state of a power transmission process is normal. Indices for reference may include transmission progress, transmission rate, and the like. A user may view whether a power transmission process is normal, and when a problem exists, the user may correct the problem.

When a state of a power transmission process is normal, a terahertz transmitter device may continue, pause or interrupt the data transmission process according to a user instruction. When a state of a power transmission process is abnormal, a user may be presented a power transmission error and/or may be prompted to retry power transmission. Subsequent to an initial power transmission error, a user may reselect data so as to realize power transmission. A user may be provided with an application interactive interface on which the user may perform such operations as enabling, pausing or interrupting a power transmission process. A terahertz transmitter device may prompt a user of a state and a parameter of a power transmission process. For example, a user may be prompted with some related indexes, such as power transmission progress, power transmission rate, error instruction, or remaining time, etc.

Further, a terahertz transmitter device may function as a master. A terahertz receiver device may not function as a master. A user may operate a terahertz receiver device, and the terahertz receiver device may enable, continue, pause or interrupt a power transmission process according to a user instruction. Alternatively, a terahertz receiver device may detect a state of a power transmission process. Two terahertz devices operate as a master-slave relationship with the transmitter being the master.

Further, in some embodiments, the method of performing wireless power transfer using terahertz frequencies may include transmitting an alert to a user device based on a detection of an erroneous condition associated with wireless power transfer, as illustrated in FIG. 8. Accordingly, one or more of the transmitter device and the receiver device may monitor an operational state of the wireless power transfer process at 1402. Further, based on the monitoring, an erroneous condition may be detected at 1404. For example, if the receiver device does not receive a response from the transmitter device within a predetermined time period of transmitting a request for power transfer, the receiver device may detect the erroneous condition. Similarly, as another example, the transmitter device may sense a load on the transmitter antenna during the wireless transfer process and based on the sensing, the transmitter device may determine an erroneous condition at the receiver device that is preventing normal power transfer. Accordingly, based on the detection of the erroneous condition, one or more of the transmitter device and the receiver device may generate and transmit an alert to a designated user device through a WPN server at 1406.

FIG. 15 illustrates an environment 1500 in which the disclosed systems and methods may operate, in accordance with some embodiments. The environment 1500 may include a room 1502 in which there is are multiple receiver devices 1504-1508 (electronic devices). Further, the environment 1500 may include a transmitter device 1510 configured to wirelessly transmit power (using terahertz frequencies) to the multiple receiver devices 1504-1508. Further, the transmitter device 1510 may include one or more satellites. Further, the one or more satellites may include one or more low earth orbiting satellites.

According to some embodiments, the present disclosure provides an example of a blockchain-based wireless power transmission network. FIG. 16 is a schematic block diagram of an exemplary computer network 1600 illustratively comprising one or more nodes/devices 1640, receiver devices 1602-1632, and a wireless power mesh network (WPN) server 1634, all of which may be interconnected by various methods of communication. For instance, they may be interconnected via wired links or shared media such as wireless links, PLC links, and so on (links 1642), where certain receiver devices in the receiver devices 1602-1632, such as, e.g., drones, sensors, smartphones, notebook computers, etc., may be in communication with other receiver devices in the receiver devices 1602-1632 based on distance, signal strength, current operational status, location, etc. Further, the receiver devices 1602-1632 may communicate with any number of external devices, such as wireless power mesh network server(s) 1634 over a network 1636, which may be a WAN in some implementations. For example, the receiver device 1126 may send sensor data to WPN server 1634 for further processing, either via a local network or via a WAN. WPN server 1634 may include but may not be limited to wireless power mesh network management system (WPNMS) devices, supervisory control, and data acquisition (SCADA) devices, enterprise resource planning (ERP) servers, other network administration devices, or the like. Further, one or more utility tokens, that may represent access to one or more products or services may reside on any one or more receiver devices in the receiver devices 1602-1632, such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices, drones, mobile electronic devices, smartphones, wearables, tablets, gaming consoles and controllers, e-book readers, remote controls, sensors (in automobiles or such as thermostats), autonomous vehicles and so on. The one or more nodes 1640, and the receiver devices 1602-1632 may exchange data packets 1638 (e.g., location and/or messages sent between the devices/nodes) using predefined network communication protocols such as certain known wired protocols, wireless protocols (e.g., IEEE Std. 802.15. 4, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and so on.), PLC protocols, or other shared media protocols where appropriate. In this context, a protocol may consist of a set of rules that may define how the one or more nodes/devices may interact with each other.

FIGS. 17-19 show an exemplary embodiment of a system 1700 to facilitate wireless charging of IoT devices and electronic devices, displaying one or more receiver devices registering with a network. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 17, a network may include one or more power transmitter devices 1702-1704. Further, the one or more power transmitter devices 1702-1704 may include one or more satellites. Further, the one or more satellites may include one or more low earth orbiting satellites. In some embodiments, the devices 1702-1704 may include routers (e.g., terahertz power transmitter/router etc.) located on the edges of local networks may comprise of one or more IoT nodes or receiver devices. For instance, receiver devices 1706-1708 may be registered with the power transmitter device 1702 forming a first local network and receiver devices 1710-1714 may be registered with the power transmitter device 1704 forming a second local network. Further, as shown, the power transmitter devices 1702-1704 may be in communication with one or more blockchain servers 1716 through WAN 1718, that may host a blockchain network. In some embodiments, the one or more blockchain servers 1716 may be configured as smart-contracts, as self-executing pieces of code, which may be stored in the blockchain network. The smart contracts may stipulate one or more terms of the agreement between one or more devices of the network, such as receiver devices, power transmitter routers, and so on. Smart contracts may further define which actions may be executed upon fulfillment of certain conditions and may be configured to communicate in a peer-to-peer manner to share blockchain information with one or more blockchain servers. The smart contracts may mandate maintaining constant receiver connection thus eliminating sleep mode resulting in constant power stream. This may help enhance power battery storage resulting with increased functionality. The smart contract may be incorporated in a Wireless Power Protocol. Moreover, artificial intelligence (AI) may be used to perform one or more of enhance power transmission efficiency and enhance power storage.

Generally, the blockchain may comprise information about one or more devices that may join the network, such as through registration with the power transmitter devices 1702-1704. In some embodiments, the blockchain may be stored on one or more devices registered on the network, such as power transmitter devices, power receiver devices, and so on. Further, if a new receiver device, such as the receiver device 1720 attempts to register with the power transmitter device 1702, the receiver device 1720 may send a registration request 1722 that may include identification information for the receiver device 1720 and/or any other metadata relating to the receiver device 1720 towards the power transmitter device 1702. For instance, a registration request 1722 may include one or more of receiver device ID, receiver device type, and information about one or more access tokens or utility tokens, group ID, identity trust level, timestamp, and so on.

Further, as shown in FIG. 18, the power transmitter device 1702 may process registration request 1722 from the node and register the transaction with the blockchain by sending a notification 1724 to the blockchain server 1716. In some embodiments, the power transmitter device 1702 may already be registered and present in the blockchain (e.g., as updated via a registrar) with a high trust level (e.g., based on the transaction). The power transmitter device 1702 may include any or all of the receiver device information from registration request in the notification 1724. Further, the power transmitter device 1702 may also include any other information regarding node 1720 obtained from the local network or independently by the power transmitter/router device 1702. In some embodiments, the notification 1724 may also include one or more digital signatures, for purposes of ensuring that edge device 1702 actually sends the notification 1724, ensuring that the information was originally provided by the node 1720, etc. Based on the notification 1724, any number of network devices (e.g., blockchain server 1716, other devices, etc.) may validate the information regarding the receiver device 1720. For example, as shown in FIG. 19, a blockchain server 1716 or another device in communication therewith (e.g., a power transmitter device, etc.) may act as a validator for the information included in the notification 1724. In some embodiments, a local validator may be used by the device seeking validation (e.g., power transmitter device 1, receiver device A, etc.), to restrict public key distribution. Further, in other embodiments, a standalone validator may be used for validation. To process the notification 1724, the validator may use of one or more public keys associated with a digital signature in the notification 1724, thereby ensuring that the notification 1724 may have been sent by the trusted power transmitter 1702. Then, in turn, the validator may compare the information regarding the receiving device 1720 to the blockchain, to ensure the validity in view of what may be already known about the receiver device 1720 in the blockchain.

Finally, as shown in FIG. 19, the blockchain server 1716 may update the blockchain through a smart contract and add the details regarding the receiver device 1720 to the blockchain based on the validation. Further, all the other nodes/devices in the network may have access to the information about the receiver device 1720 through the blockchain. Accordingly, the distribution of the blockchain may allow all nodes/devices to verify the identity of the receiver device 1720 such as when the receiver device 1720 may migrate to another local network, to detect anomalies (such as by comparing profile information or other behavioral information regarding the receiver device 1720 stored in the blockchain to an observed behavior of the receiver device 1720 and to perform other functions using the shared information about the receiver device 1720.

Further, upon of registration of the receiver device 1720 with the power transmitter device 1702, the receiver device 1720 may be able to receive power wirelessly from the power transmitter device 1702. Accordingly, the resultant change in power and all similar updates related to the power level of the receiver device 1720 may be updated on the blockchain. The updates in the blockchain may be made by the power transmitter device 1702. Alternatively, the receiver device 1720 may also update the blockchain. However, in some embodiments, the receiver device 1720 may not have enough power to update the blockchain. Accordingly, the change in power and all similar updates related to the power level of the receiver device 1720 may be stored on an intermediary device and may be updated on the blockchain.

Further, in some embodiments, the blockchain may be hosted on one or more receiver devices on the network based on a power level of the one or more receiver devices. Accordingly, one more power transmitter devices to which the one or more receiver devices may be connected may constantly retrieve a power level of the one or more receiver devices. Accordingly, if the one or more receiver devices are below a predetermined level of power, the blockchain may not be hosted on the one or more receiver devices.

Further, in some embodiments, the blockchain may not be hosted on one or more receiver devices on the network owing to a possibility that the one or more receiver devices may not have a required power level to stay connected on the network, which may lead to an unreliable blockchain network, which may not be accessible when the one or more receiver devices do not have enough power level to stay powered on to be able to host the blockchain.

Further, in an embodiment, a blockchain network may also include a cryptocurrency associated with the blockchain network. The cryptocurrency tokens may be stored on one or more receiver devices. Accordingly, the one or more receiver devices may have to transmit one or more cryptocurrency tokens to a wallet associated with one or more power transmitter devices to receive power. The number of tokens that may need to be transferred to the one or more wallets of the one or more power transmitting devices may depend on the amount of power that the one or more power receiver devices may need to receive. Accordingly, details about the transfer of the one or more cryptocurrency tokens may be stored on the blockchain network.

FIGS. 20-24 illustrate further examples of receiver device validation using a blockchain, according to various embodiments. As shown in FIG. 20, a server 2002 may be associated with a manufacturer of the receiver device 1720 (node F) and the server 2002 may have a high level of trust in the blockchain. In some embodiments, the server 2002 may update the blockchain (e.g., blockchain 2004) to record information regarding the receiver device 1720 as part of a sales transaction. For example, the server 2002 may send a blockchain update that may record that the receiver device 1720 may have an ID of 1234, is of node type XYZ, and was sold to the ABC domain. In some embodiments, the server 2002 may also digitally sign the update using a private key, allowing one or more validators to verify that the update may have been performed by the server 2002 using a corresponding public key of the server 2002.

Further, as shown in FIG. 21, if receiver device 1720 attempts to register with a local domain of the power transmitter device 1702, in a similar manner as illustrated in FIGS. 17-19. In response to the registration request from the receiver device 1720, the power transmitter 1702 may send a notification 2008 that may include information from the registration request and/or any additional information regarding receiver device 1720, such as the identity of the local domain of transmitter/router 1702. Particularly, the notification 2008 may include information regarding network registration transaction, to update the blockchain. Further, the power transmitter 1702 may also use the information from receiver device 1720 to validate against any existing details that may already be available in the blockchain, such as existing details set by the manufacturer of the receiver device 1720. Once the receiver device 1720 is registered to the local domain of the power transmitter device 1702, the power device 1702 may then update the information pertaining to the receiver device 1720 in the blockchain accordingly.

FIG. 22 shows a comparison of the information present in the notification 2008 from the power transmitter device 1702 against the blockchain by a validator to determine a level of trust for receiver device 1720. For instance, if the server 2002 updates the blockchain to indicate that the manufacturer of receiver device 1720 may have sold the receiver device 1720 to the operator of a particular domain. In turn, the validator may compare the reported domain in the notification 2008 against the existing blockchain, to determine whether information about the two domains may match. If a match is found in the compared information, the validator may update the blockchain with the information in the notification 2008 and set a high trust level for node 1720 in the blockchain. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 23, if the reported domain in the notification 2008 is different than the existing information stored on the blockchain, the validator may determine that there is a mismatch between the reported domain and the existing information in the blockchain regarding the receiver device 1720. In particular, based on the blockchain, the validator may determine that the receiver device 1720 may be attempting to register with a domain that may differ from the domain previously reported by the manufacturer of the receiver device 1720 in the blockchain. In turn, the validator may update the blockchain with the information about receiver device 1720 and also assign a low level of trust to the receiver device 1720 due to the discrepancy. Further, validator devices in the network may leverage the information stored in the blockchain regarding the one or more receiver devices to control and assess the behavior of the one or more receiver devices. For instance, a validator device may prevent a receiver device with a low level of trust from performing certain functions (e.g., communicating with certain devices, etc.). In one embodiment, a device that receives a request from a particular receiver device may make use of the blockchain to authenticate the requesting receiver device. Based on the results of the authentication, the device may control how the request may be processed. In further cases, the blockchain may carry behavioral information regarding a particular receiver device, such as the location profile of the one or more receiver devices or other observations regarding the one or more receiver devices. In some embodiments, devices in the network may then use the behavioral information to assess whether the current behavior of the one or more receiver devices may be anomalous or otherwise unexpected. FIG. 24 illustrates power transmitter node validation using a blockchain, in accordance with the exemplary embodiment.

FIGS. 25-26 illustrate examples of a device using a blockchain to authenticate a request, according to various embodiments. As shown in FIG. 25, if the receiver device 1720 registers with a local network associated with power transmitter device, the receiver device 1720 may transmit one or more requests or messages (e.g., reporting sensor data, etc.) to one or more receiver devices either in the same local network or in a remote network. For instance, if receiver device 1720 sends a request 2502 to receiver device 1714 in the remote network associated with power transmitter device, as part of the request 2502, the receiver device 1720 may also send or otherwise publish a public key. For example, receiver device 1714 may challenge receiver device 1720 the public key of receiver device 1720, which the receiver device 1720 may send through a corresponding application program interface (API)-based response.

As shown in FIG. 26, the receiver device 1714 may use the public key from the receiver device 1720 to decipher the information in the blockchain regarding the receiver device 1720. For instance, the receiver device 1714 may validate and confirm the identity of the receiver device 1720 by using the public key to decipher the digitally signed data regarding the receiver device 1720 in blockchain 2504. If the receiver device 1714 is unable to do so, the receiver device 1714 may take any number of remediation measures, such as dropping the request 2502, sending a security alert to a supervisory device, etc. Conversely, if the receiver device 1714 is able to authenticate the identity of the receiver device 1720, the receiver device 1714 may authorize the data session with the receiver device 1720. In some embodiments, the receiver device 1714 may further assess the trust level of the receiver device 1720 in the blockchain and apply a lower weight to any data from the receiver device 1720.

FIGS. 27-29 illustrate examples of a device using a blockchain for authentication, identification, and verification, according to various embodiments. As shown in FIG. 27, the receiver device 1720 may be registered to a local network of power router device 1702. In some embodiments, the power transmitter device 1702 or another device in the local network may occasionally update the blockchain to indicate the observed behavior of the receiver device 1720. For example, the power transmitter 1702 may monitor the location profile of the receiver device 1720 (e.g., if the receiver device 1720 sends data, the size of the sent data, the destination of the sent data, etc.). In turn, the power transmitter 1702 may initiate a blockchain update 2702 that may include the observed location profile of the receiver device 1720.

Further, as shown in FIG. 28, if the receiver device 1720 later migrates to another local network, for example, if the receiver device 1720 is a mobile or wearable device, the receiver device 1720 may move away from the local network of the power transmitter device 1702 and into proximity of a local network of the power transmitter device 1704. In such a case, the receiver device 1720 may attempt to register with the local network of the power transmitter device 1704. As a part of this migration, one or more connected devices in the local network of power transmitter device F may use the blockchain to ensure that the receiver device attempting to register with the local domain may indeed be the receiver device 1720 which may previously have been registered in the local domain of the power transmitter device 1702 (e.g., by deciphering digitally signed information in the blockchain using the public key of the receiver device 1720, and so on etc.). In some embodiments, the power transmitter device 1704 may use any behavioral information in the blockchain regarding the receiver device 1720, to determine whether an anomalous condition exists. For example, after the receiver device 1720 is registered to the local network of the power transmitter device 1704, the power transmitter device 1704 may observe the location profile of the receiver device 1720. In turn, the power transmitter device 1704 may compare the observed location profile to that may have been previously recorded in the blockchain by the power transmitter device 1702. If a discrepancy is found in the location profiles, the power transmitter device 1704 may determine that an anomaly exists and take any number of remediation measures (e.g., blocking location, sending alerts, etc.). For example, if the receiver device 1720 is a sensor that sends sensory data every hour to a particular service. If the receiver device 1720 suddenly stops sending the sensor data on time, or sends the sensory data to a different service, the power transmitter device 1704 may determine that the receiver device 1720 may be behaving abnormally and take corrective measures based on the location profile in the blockchain. FIG. 29 illustrates power transmitter device node and receiver node using a bock chain to authenticate to detect a unique paring request for power transmission, in accordance with the exemplary embodiment.

FIG. 30 is a flowchart of a method 3000 of wireless charging using blockchain in a network, in accordance with some embodiments. In some embodiments, a specialized computing device may perform the method 3000 by executing stored instructions. For example, a power transmitter may perform the method 3000 by executing stored instructions. The method 3000 may start at step 3002, and may continue to step 3004, where, as described in greater detail in conjunction with figures above, a power transmitter device may receive a network registration request from a particular receiver device. For example, a sensor, actuator, or an IoT node, etc., may attempt to register with a local network of the power transmitter device. In various embodiments, the registration request may include information about the particular receiver device such as the type of the receiver device (e.g., type of sensor, etc.), a group identifier, a unique receiver device identifier, an indication of the network to which the receiver device requests registration, or any other information about the particular receiver device. In one embodiment, the receiver device may also apply a digital signature to the request, allowing the device or any other interested device to decipher the contents of the request using the corresponding public key of the receiver device.

At step 3006, as detailed above, the power transmitter device may cause the performance of a validation of the information about the receiver device using a blockchain. In various embodiments, the blockchain may include receiver device information regarding the particular receiver device and any number of other receiver devices. For example, in some cases, the manufacturer of the particular receiver device may create an initial entry in the blockchain that includes details about the particular receiver device. In turn, validation of the receiver device's information may entail comparing the information from the registration request to any existing information about the receiver device in the blockchain. In some embodiments, the power transmitter device itself may perform the validation. In other embodiments, the power transmitter device may cause another validation device to perform the validation, such as a blockchain server, a devoted validation device, etc.

At step 3008, the power transmitter device may cause an update to the blockchain-based on the validation in step 3006 and the information about the receiver device received in step 3004. For example, if the power transmitter device a transmitter/router, the router may cause the blockchain to be updated to reflect that the particular receiver device is attached to the network of the router. In some cases, a level of trust for the particular receiver device may be included in the update. For example, if certain information about the receiver device does not match that in the blockchain, the update to the blockchain may indicate a low level of trust for the receiver device.

At step 3010, as detailed above, the power transmitter device may use the updated blockchain to control the behavior of the particular receiver device and one or more other receiver devices. Notably, since the blockchain includes identification information for the particular receiver device and potentially additional metadata regarding the receiver device (e.g., the receiver device's location profile, etc.), the power transmitter device may use the identification and/or additional metadata to control how one or more receiver devices may operate in the network. In some cases, the power transmitter device may use the blockchain to prevent a receiver device from migrating to its local network. In another embodiment, the power transmitter device may limit or restrict traffic flows of the receiver device based on the blockchain. In a further embodiment, the power transmitter device may use metadata about the receiver device in the blockchain to detect anomalous conditions. The method 3000 may then end at step 3012.

It should be noted that while certain steps within the method 3000 may be optional as described above, the steps shown in FIG. 30 are merely examples for illustration, and certain other steps may be included or excluded as desired. Further, while a particular order of the steps is shown, this ordering is merely illustrative, and any suitable arrangement of the steps may be utilized without departing from the scope of the embodiments herein.

The techniques described herein, therefore, leverage blockchain to update node identity information, as well as potentially other metadata about a node. In some aspect, a power transmitter/router node may act as a proxy to update the blockchain information on behalf of the node, which allows low-power devices to conserve resources. In another aspect, a validator may use the existing information in the blockchain about a particular node to validate any new information about the node and update the blockchain accordingly. Other nodes in the network can also leverage the blockchain information to facilitate movement of the node across local networks, confirming the identity of the node, performing anomaly detection, etc.

The one or more network interfaces 3104 contain the mechanical, electrical, and signaling circuitry for communicating data and power over links 1642 coupled to the exemplary computer network 1600. The one or more network interfaces 3104 may be configured to transmit and/or receive data and a power transmission using a variety of different communication protocols. Note, further, that the nodes may have two different types of network connections, e.g., wireless and wired/physical connections, and that the view herein is merely for illustration.

In various embodiments, the AI algorithm and blockchain process 3110-3112 may be configured to perform node/device identification and authentication using a distributed blockchain that includes information regarding the various nodes/devices in the network.

An example implementation of LLNs is an “Internet of Things” network. Loosely, the term “Internet of Things” or “IoT” may be used by those in the art to refer to uniquely identifiable objects (things) and their virtual representations in a wireless powered network-based architecture. In particular, the next frontier in the evolution of the Internet is the ability to connect more than just computers and communications devices, but rather the ability to connect “objects” in general, such as lights, appliances, vehicles, HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning), windows and window shades and blinds, doors, locks, etc. The “Internet of Things” thus generally refers to the interconnection of objects (e.g., smart objects), such as sensors and actuators, over a computer network (e.g., IP), which may be the Public Internet or a private network. Such devices have been used in the industry for decades, usually in the form of non-IP or proprietary protocols that are connected to IP networks by way of protocol translation gateways. With the emergence of a myriad of applications, such as the smart grid, smart cities, and building and industrial automation, and cars (e.g., that can interconnect millions of objects for sensing things like power quality, tire pressure, and temperature and that can actuate engines and lights), it has been of the utmost importance to extend the IP protocol suite for these networks.

Particularly in the context of the IoT and similar networks, device identity and management is a key building block for a viable end-to-end solution. Depending on the particular use case, a “thing” (e.g., a node) may have to register or authenticate its identity with different service enablers that may use various service-specific procedures.

Block Chain Based IoT Device Identity Verification and Power Transmission.

The techniques herein provide for the use of a blockchain-based mechanism that conveys information regarding the identity of nodes and/or other metadata regarding the nodes, to control the behavior of the nodes in the networks. In some aspects, a superconducting receiver device may act as a proxy to update node information in the block chain on behalf of the nodes, so as not to require nodes with constrained resources to perform the updates themselves. In another aspect, any new and unconfirmed information regarding a particular node can be validated against the block chain before updating the block chain, accordingly. In a further aspect, devices in the network can also use the blockchain to control the behavior of a node in the network, e.g., by confirming the identity of the node, associating a trust level with the node, performing anomaly detection, and the like.

Specifically, according to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, as described in detail below, a device in a network receives a network registration request from a particular node. The network registration request comprises information about the particular node. The device causes performance of a validation of the information about the particular node via comparison of the information about the particular node to a distributed blockchain that includes information regarding the particular node and one or more other nodes. The device causes an update to the blockchain-based on upon the information about the particular node and the validation of the information about the particular node. The device uses the updated blockchain to control behavior of the particular node and the one or more other nodes.

Illustratively, the techniques described herein may be performed by hardware, software, and/or firmware, such as in accordance with the Al Algorithm and blockchain process 3110-3112, which may contain computer-executable instructions executed by the system on a chip 3114 to perform functions relating to the techniques described herein. For example, the techniques herein may be treated as extensions to conventional protocols, such as the various wireless communication protocols, and as such, may be processed by similar components understood in the art that execute those protocols, accordingly.

Operationally, the techniques herein leverage the blockchain concept to register and update profile and trust information about network nodes (e.g., IoT sensors, etc.). A superconducting receiver device or a stand-alone proxy may sign this information before updating the block chain servers, ensuring a chain of trust. Any validator can then use the corresponding public key to validate the node information and create/update the block chain with the information. This allows devices in the network to use the blockchain to quickly identify a given node and use any relevant information in the block chain about the node to control how the node is handled in the network.
